With Hakimi suspended, it’s likely that Marquinhos will play as a right-back in the PSG-Barcelona clash. Danilo is in favor of this decision.
Sidelined due to suspension, Achraf Hakimi will miss the first leg of the Champions League quarter-final against FC Barcelona this Wednesday (9 p.m.). Center-back Marquinhos could step in as his replacement. And Danilo approves of this choice, as the versatile midfielder of Paris Saint-Germain revealed in a press conference on Tuesday.
The Brazilian could thus play his 436th match with PSG, setting a new all-time record.
« Other players can occupy that position, like Marquinhos, Warren as well. Marquinhos doesn’t have the same ability to exploit depth but other qualities that can help the team. Marquinhos is a role model for everyone. He’s a captain who always seeks to help others, he’s ready for any eventuality. He’s fantastic as a player and always performs. He’s important for us. »
